Clamping device with autonomous system of compensation

Clamping device with autonomous system of compensation

Invention refers to clamping device for contact parts set into initial position. It can be implemented particularly in welding tongs and in systems of disk brakes. The clamping device contains first element (18) and the second element relatively travelling under influence of drive device of screw-nut type. System of compensation (46) is positioned between moving support (14) and first element (18) rigidly connected with nut (12) for repeated installation of this first element (18 ) into an initial working position relative to the second element. The system of compensation consists of compensating disk (68) at rotation rigidly coupled with hub (50) screwed on movable support (14), of measuring disk (80) mounted on moving support (14) by means of mechanism of idle run (76) and of at least one spring (74) for accumulation of force. The spring is installed between compensation disk (68) and measuring disk (80) so, that storage of parts wear condition is facilitated with relative angular position of measuring disk (80) in relation to moving support (14).

Method of producing curvilinear tubes from formed hald-branch pipes

Method of producing curvilinear tubes from formed hald-branch pipes

Proposed method comprises assembling half-branch pipes, fixation of edges and fusion welding of lengthwise butts. Edges are fixed by point-contact welding at two points on feeding filler wire under electrodes at (45 -90)° to butt line. Filler wire is pressed against the floor by branch pipes. Wire contracted, it is axially loaded by expanding force equal to (0.1…0.2)σB, where σB is wire material ultimate strength, MPa, not exceeding force of wire teat off from half-branch pipe. Then, current pulse is sent through electrodes to melt wire through and melt half-branch pipes at points of contact with wire. Note that fixture pitch is set equal to (1.0…2.0)Do, where Do is branch pipes diametre, mm.

Strip jointer

Strip jointer

Invention can be used to joint strips together to produce endless strip. Proposed device comprises at least one clamp at least one cutter and at least one jointing device articulated together. Strip top and bottom clamps can be driven by levers towards or from each other to clamp or release the strip. Welding table made up of, for example two parts, is used to support strip sections after cutting. Thereafter, new positioning is performed. Note here that strip ends can be moved by lateral displacements of clamps. Prior to jointing, two cut strip ends are leveled in height to allow equal thickness of strips ends. Leveling mechanism incorporates at least one clamp.

Method of produced small-weight blade for gas turbine engine

Invention relates to machine building and can be sued for fabricating gas turbine engine blades. Blade body workpiece is machined to produce a part comprising body back with cavity and jointing groove along the edges of said cavity, and tail end. Blade pressure surface is produced with shape and sizes mating body back jointing groove. Blade pressure surface is fitted in said jointing groove to weld both together. Welded seam is treated thermally and blade is subjected to finishing. Blade workpiece has base elements arranged on tail end and back face that make base plane.
